Run Ducky Run!

 
 
On my summer holiday I totally fell in love with these ducks.  They were Indian Runners.  (Random fact - so was Jemima Puddleduck.)  I spent most of my time next to the window and they would keep me entertained by running past.  Of course, I needed to scrap them...
 


I used my dymo.  Stuck on a sprinkling of sequins.




Used a duck paperclip - I think paperclips are my new obsession!




I decided the best way to show how they ran in a line was several photos cut and put together.  It was impossible to get all the ducks in one photo and you couldn't use the panoramic setting as they were running too fast!!




And a close up of the painty-texturey goodness I used as a photo mat.

Love them.  I now want a garden big enough to have some ducks of my own!  :)

I'd like to share this at:

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   ...
